Having jaundice for 7 years is not usual. Jaundice is when your eyes and skin turn yellow. This occurs when your liver does not work well. Infections, liver problems, or blocked bile ducts can cause it. Tests will be required to know what is causing it. After knowing the cause, treatment will be given to make your liver work better and reduce jaundice.

Hello my 5 month and 13 days old baby have itching all over the body and brusing Bilirubine 20,7 mol/L 12,1 mg/L Is that mean she have a liver problem

Female | 5 month and 13 days

Itching all over the body and elevated bilirubin levels can be concerning, but it doesn't necessarily mean a liver problem right away. High bilirubin can be due to various reasons like liver issues or even something as simple as a temporary infection. It's essential to have your baby evaluated by a pediatrician to determine the exact cause. In the meantime, try to keep your baby comfortable by using gentle lotions for the itching. Stay calm, and let's get your baby checked out to ensure she gets the care she needs.

Male | 48

If your doctor has suggested that you are suffering from compensated cirrhosis, this means the patient is in the early stage of cirrhosis. such patients need to be evaluated thoroughly for the cause of cirrhosis. Also these patients need to be under regular follow up with liver specialists to diagnose and treat complications when and where these complications arise. Also these patients need to be under strict liver-related diet control. Diet is generally modified and custom made for each and every patient.

I am diagnosed with hepatitis B, medication prescribed which is Getino B 250g, my question is can I take Collagen supplements gummies, Multivitamins and Apple Cider Gummies while still taking my medication?

Female | 24

I understand your concern about taking collagen supplements, multivitamins, and apple cider gummies alongside your hepatitis B medication, Getino B 250g. It's essential to be cautious with additional supplements while on prescribed medication. Certain supplements may interact with your medication or impact your liver, which is already affected by hepatitis B. To be safe, I recommend consulting your hepatologist before adding any new supplements. They can assess potential interactions and tailor recommendations to your specific health needs.

Male | 56

In advanced stages of liver cirrhosis, the abdomen can become distended and feel firm or tight due to fluid accumulation (ascites). This can cause discomfort and difficulty eating. Whereas changes in taste perception and a knee infection are not directly related to liver cirrhosis and would require separate evaluation

We advise you to not discontinue any treatment course on your own, especially that related to antivirals for hepatitis B. Hepatitis B treatment can also be life-long in some cases.

You can use this page to find specialists - Hepatologists in Mumbai. And reach out to me, any specialist working in the relevant field, or clinicspots team if you have any other doubt.
